This is a genuine Zakspeed Escort now owned by a guy in NZ. It did race in OZ briefly in the hands of Ian Grey in WA.
Would love to have this in the garage. If anyone is ever looking for paint scheme ideas for their SS...



Actually the Corvair scheme was pretty hot too.

Can anydoby tell me a lot more about that impressive Corvair?

I'm looking for technical information, more period pics, drivers name, its pedigree and its records, press articles...
